Happy Heart Day

It is a good day, probably a great day to be happy.  One of those peaceful joys that fill you up from your toes to the tip top of your head.  Some days are good for the giddy joys, the excited overwhelming ones, then others just make you feel complete.Sunlight reflecting, the birds starting to warn us that Spring really will come awake a sense of hope and expectation that brightens the day..
 A tulip plant and a baby rose bush definitely add to my state of joy along with the chocolates sitting on the table.  The fact that our Anniversary (number 24 today) and Valentine´s Day fall together gives a multitude of sweet surprises.  I did do my part, first with a Happy Heart Cake.  Healthy and yummy to boot, before I rushed off to work.

Happy Heart Cake

1 3-4 c. whole wheat flour
1-4 c. ground oat flour
1-2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. baking powder.

1  1-4 c. milk

1-4 c. oil
1-4 c. molasses

1 1-4 c. pecans.
brown sugar

Mix dry ingrediants together. Mix liquids seperately.  Stir together.  Blend in half of pecans, crushed.  Pour in 8x8 pan.  Decorate with remaining pecans, sprinkle with brown sugar.  Bake 375 for about 25 minutes. .
